New Get Active Glasgow Fund launched at Drumchapel Sports Centre

October 23, 2025

TTS Chairman and members of the Drumchapel Table Tennis Club played host to the press launch of a new fund designed to boost activity across the city.

A new £550,000 fund set up to help more people get active in Glasgow is now open for applications from sport clubs and organisations throughout the city.

The ‘Get Active Glasgow Fund’ is a two-year co-funding agreement involving Glasgow Life, sportscotland and the London Marathon Foundation. Together with High Life Highland, the organisations have formed the £1.1 million ‘Get Active Scotland’ funding partnership, which commits to improving health through sport and physical activity, particularly among the least active and those facing barriers due to deprivation.
